KA-POW! K.O. Review – Intense, High Octane, Action-Packed SLEEP!

Turns out your inner hero isn’t unleashed in the gym but in the bed, overnight. Alone. At an early reasonable hour. With the TV, smart phone, and any other blue-light emitting device shut off. You would think this wouldn’t be so difficult, the whole sleeping thing, but plenty of men don’t do it. And if you don’t sleep, you don’t gain.

Which is why we have KA-POW! K.O. Testosterone Booster, a 2-in-1 T-booster + sleep aid hybrid that helps get our asses to bed and to sleep — NO BUTS.

About KA-POW! K.O. Testosterone Booster

Manufactured by Hero Supplements, KA-POW! K.O. is a cartoony Overnight Anabolic Booster intent on promoting the quality of your sleep to enhance your muscle gains & recovery. But does it stand on its own as a testosterone booster? Formula notes:

Superhero Strength: The comic book design is goofy and has us wondering exactly who this product is appealing to, yet the KA-POW! supplements line seems great for superhero levels of anabolic muscle growth & strength.

Directions:For deep productive sleep and all night anabolic muscle support, adults take (1) or (2) capsules approximately 30 minutes prior to bedtime. Do not exceed 3 capsules in a 24-hour period. For Super Hero-like results, use for at least 60 days and combine with a muscle building exercise program fueled by KA-POW!™ Anabolic Pre-workout.

Work hard, play hard, sleep hard with a swift KA-POW! melatonin-fueled K.O.

KA-POW! K.O. advertises an action-packed experience with its superhero-centric theme, yet is designed for a much milder, lamer experience: getting adequate sleep. But hey! sleep is important, and KA-POW! K.O. seems to sufficiently combine sleep boosts with testosterone boosts, as evidenced by its sleep-enhancing, T-supporting ZMA trio of vitamins & minerals:

Zinc Oxide – The manliest mineral on the market, sitting at #2 on our BIG List of T-Boosters for its direct involvement in T-synthesis.

Vitamin B6 – Pyridoxine HCl is the inferior B6 form (P-6-P is better), yet this is still an effective mood-boosting male enhancer.

Smart start to KA-POW! K.O.’s formula, but that’s not even the beginning. The true beginning is in the proprietary (meh) blend:

KA-POW! K.O. Overnight Andro-bolic Muscle Growth Matrix

Discounting melatonin, 915 mg split nine ways allows for a potential 101.7 mg average dosage per ingredient, which isn’t necessarily baaaad per se, but it isn’t great per se either …per se. In terms of quality, many of the ingredients could use improvement — however, the first ingredient in this blend is looking nice & potent, even if it isn’t much of a testosterone booster:

Tribulus Terrestris Extract – The most popular herb in testosterone booster supplements doesn’t boost testosterone. WTF, M8? What it does do is enhance physical & sexual performance, delivering feel-good boosts on energy, with anecdotal evidence in support of its use as an ergogenic sleep aid.

Fenugreek Seed Extract – Prepare for the stank: fenugreek metabolizes in the body to produce a maple syrupy smell to your sweat & urine, which is why some men avoid this seed. However, some research suggests fenugreek assists with “free” T expression by reducing SHBG & 5-alpha reductase activity.

Diindolylmethane (DIM) – Anti-estrogen compound sourced from cruciferous vegetables (e.g., broccoli), believed to inhibit aromatase, the enzyme responsible for the conversion of T to estrogen …so yeah, you’ll want to do something about that if you’re boosting T.

Ashwagandha – Great choice for this supplement for ashwagandha’s 2-in-1 benefits: 1) anabolic adaptogen balance on T & stress, and 2) sedative relaxation. This is an adaptogen with substantial anti-anxiety effects, making it great for relaxation & sleep.

L-Theanine – More anti-anxiety relaxation, in the form of one of our favorite nootropics that relaxes the mind & body without diminishing focus.

Valerian Extract – Valerian has a reputation as a potent sleep enhancer but its effects could go either way: towards sleep or insomnia. Sort of a gamble, but a safe one as valerian has plenty of evidence in support of its sleep promotion effects.

Melatonin, 2 mg – Decent dosage of a time-to-sleep neurotransmitter. Occasionally causes headaches if overdosed or taken too often, so if KA-POW! K.O. has you waking up with a foggy, hurt head… that’s why.

Formula Analysis

This supplement has us screaming inside: Grow up, Peter Pan!

We’re superhero fans as much as the next guy, but still… the marketing design of Hero Supplements’ supplements has us questioning who exactly this supplement is for — KA-POW! K.O. reads like a small step up from the Flintstones vitamins, except instead of focusing on children’s health it’s centered on man-children nap-times.

It’s weird, to say the least. Which essentially sums up the formula analysis of this review as well: KA-POW! K.O. is a weird supplement.

It’s a weird supplement that gets several things right, while making a few key mistakes. The things that KA-POW! K.O. gets right:

Even so, KA-POW! K.O. reads like a competent supplement that successfully takes on the feat of hybridizing testosterone & sleep boosts within the same formula, so props to that. Just be sure that, if you order this supplement, to store it away from your children’s vitamins to minimize any confusion.

KA-POW! K.O. Benefits

KA-POW! K.O. claims to support SIZE, STRENGTH, RECOVERY, VITALITY, & LIBIDO through the following bio-benefits:

Boost Testosterone Levels

Suppress Estrogenic Effects

Support Natural GH Release

Deep Sleep & Faster Recovery

Here’s the thing: We have much more confidence in the male enhancement benefits ascribed to KA-POW! K.O.’s sleep promotion than we do in the supplement’s straight testosterone boosting effects. In other words, we wouldn’t take this supplement strictly for testosterone. It’s strength lies in its muscle gains & recovery benefits.

Who Takes It?

Bodybuilding Nerds. Hero Supplements is a company that isn’t afraid to get its geek on, attracting weight lifting men who presumably also are fans of Batman. Not that being a Batman fan is prerequisite to taking this supplement. Captain America will also do just fine.

Any Side Effects?

None reported. The customer reviews on KA-POW! K.O.are generally positive, leaving no hints of significant side effect risk or funky effects. Frankly, we wouldn’t expect any adverse outcomes with this list of ingredients.

KA-POW! K.O. Summary

Pros

2-in-1 Hybrid. Sleep recovery for the gains; T-boosts for the …well, gains.

Final Word on KA-POW! K.O. Testosterone Booster

KA-POW! K.O. is an effective recovery supplement, covering one of the most neglected aspects of bodybuilding: sleep. Yet, to attain the complete superhero dimensions, it seems you’ll need to supplement all KA-POW! products — from the PWO pump ignitor to the anabolic support product. If you have extra dough to blow, this may not be a bad move. Either way, KA-POW! K.O. is a great male-enhancing sleep aid on its own.
